Ukraine's Frontline Remains Unchanged Amid Heavy Russian Fire
Russia continues to wage war in Ukraine, but the Ukrainian military has reported little change to the frontlines despite heavy artillery fire. According to the General Staff, more than 45 enemy attacks were repelled over the past day, with the majority focused on the Donetsk region.
The fighting is particularly intense around Bakhmut, a city that Russian forces are trying to capture. The Ukrainian military has managed to repel about 20 enemy attacks in this area, according to General Staff reports. Oleksandr Syrskyi, commander of Ukrainian Land Forces, claimed that "the myth of invincibility of the Wagner fighters and Russian paratroopers" had been debunked by Ukrainian soldiers.
Meanwhile, Russian forces have been trying to outmaneuver Ukrainian defenses in Avdiivka and Mariinka, but so far without success. Oleksii Dmytrashkivskyi, a spokesperson for the military in that zone, said there were "operational successes" in taking strategic positions.
Despite these efforts, Russian special forces have been introduced to the area, further complicating the situation. Pushilin, leader of the self-declared Donetsk People's Republic, claimed that Russian forces are still advancing in the Avdiivka direction, but acknowledged that the enemy is facing significant losses and difficulties with terrain and weather conditions.
In a statement posted on Telegram, Syrskyi also said "the enemy is weakening and trying to cover up its failures with new fakes about the capture of Bakhmut." He added that "every soldier" must continue to push forward in order for Ukraine's entire army to advance.

just can't believe how intense this war is getting in Ukraine... been following it closely since day one and it still feels like reality TV, but way more real 
45 enemy attacks repelled tho, that's some serious Ukrainian military skills 
and btw, what's up with all these 'operational successes' in the Avdiivka direction? sounds like a lot of empty words to me 
. and it's crazy how they're trying to spin their own losses as some kinda success 
. on a serious note tho, 45 enemy attacks repelled is not negligible, but at what cost? we need to keep thinking about those soldiers and civilians caught in the crossfire 
.
. And what's with all these "operational successes" and "weakening enemy"? Sounds like a bunch of PR nonsense to me 
.
. And let's not forget about those "new fakes" about capturing Bakhmut – yeah right 
. I'm waiting for some real proof before I start believing all this propaganda 
.
they repelled over 45 enemy attacks tho lol what a noobish try from russians 
russian special forces might bring new challenges tho but like omg ukraine's got this!!! 
. but ukraine soldiers r doin the best dey can, repellin enemy attacks left and right 
. bakhmut might be a big deal for russians, but ukrainians got strategic positions locked down 
, cant keep gettin losses and bad terrain conditions on their side 
.
and omg bakhmut is like the battle ground of the century right now 
i'm so hyped for ukraine tho, they gotta keep pushing forward no matter what 
oleksandr syrskyi sounds like a total boss btw 
and yeah pushilin's trying to cover up their failures lol "new fakes" 
anyway, ukraine soldiers keep slaying 
I need some credible sources to back this up before I believe it.
! I mean, over 45 attacks repelled is nothing compared to how many are actually being launched at them. And it's not like the Russians care about the human cost either... all they care about is 'capturing' Bakhmut and getting their propaganda going 
.
OMG, it's getting so intense on the Ukrainian frontlines! Like, I'm not even kidding, Russia is pouring heavy artillery fire into Donetsk and yet the Ukrainian military just keeps repelling those attacks 
. And those Russian special forces just added more complexity to the situation 
. I mean, Syrskyi is basically saying that the enemy is weakening and they're just making up fake news about capturing Bakhmut 
. Anyway, I'm rooting for the Ukrainian military 
!
.
. And Syrskyi's warning about the enemy trying to cover up their failures with fake news? Yeah, it feels pretty real right now 
. I mean, every soldier matters in this fight, and we need to be supporting them from afar 
.
.
what's the real cost of this war?
